Were you driving aggressively? A strong downshift will auto blip the throttle. If not, something is wrong with your car. It's undeniable. And very reproducible.

Oh, what model year?? 2012.5 won't have it. Early 2013's won't either.

Ah, then I don't have it, thanks. I wonder if there is a software tweak to turn it on?

I think that the 4WD's got the rev matching in 2013 and the 2WD's got it starting in 2014. At least according to my dealer.

I always thought that is what we were supposed to learn how to do. Otherwise the automated paddle shift transmission is the way to go. After watching footage of Senna driving a manual gearbox through Monaco and comparing it to the guys driving the modern F1 cars, I felt that modern technology was seperating me from what it is to be a "driver."

John, you're writing demonstrates why Ireland has produced so many literary giants - you succinctly stated your position, illuminated it with imagery that your target audience could immediately identify with and left the reader with a thought provoking valediction.

Does anyone know when exactly in 2013 was the rev matching added?

TIA

+1.

And I agree. While the rev matching sounds like a cool gimmick, I'd rather do it myself.

Not sure automating a process is a "gimmick".

Not so. My prior car was a May 2013 build C2S, and it had rev matching (which was a great and very fun feature, IMHO). I drove that thing all the time in Sport Plus.
